As early as 5 p.m. Monday night, fans started lining the halls of the Stroud Mall in anticipation of the new X-Box 360 game, Halo 3.

The official line started at 9:00 pm, when the festivities kicked off with a Halo 2 tournament outside of EB Games/ Game Stop and free Halo 3 comic book raffle, provided by the Encounter Comics of Stroudsburg. Approximately 1,100 copies of the game were pre-orderd by last Monday and about 250 people showed up for this event, which wrapped up around 2 a.m.
